“All the Waters” is an installation consisting of a robot arm that constantly writes calligraphy on a sheet of heated corten steel. A Japanese brush collects water from a fold on the steel plate and draws new words at the rate that previous ones evaporate, similar to the ephemeral-drawing artworks such as “Re/trato” by Oscar Muñoz. The words written by the piece are over 2,000 brand names for bottled water from around the world, which feature banal, geographic, religious or environmental names: Aguavita, Polar Spring, Belles Roches, Santa Vittoria, AxyZen, Pure Life, BoNatura and so on.

“Cloud Display” is a vertical water fountain consisting of 1,600 ultrasonic atomizers, controlled by a machine-learning voice recognition system. When a participant speaks into an intercom, the piece writes any words or sentences spoken using wisps of pure water vapour. The project can work in most languages, and recognizes different accents.

“Voice Tank” is a ripple tank controlled by polyphonic pitch detection actuation. The voices of two participants who speak into the intercoms are analyzed and converted into notes hammered by motorized components. The resulting waves interact and create unique patterns.

“Pareidolium” is a circular fountain that creates portraits of onlookers in mid-air with clouds of vapor that ascend from the water basin. As a visitor looks into the water, a facial-detection system extracts their image and creates an ephemeral likeness in cold vapour. The portrait becomes tangible, almost breathable, only briefly, then disappears in turbulence.

Call on Water is a fountain that writes words in mid-air with plumes of cold vapour that ascend from a water basin. Dozens of poems by Mexican writer Octavio Paz are presented which describe readable air, the moment when the written word is spoken and becomes the atmosphere itself. The poems’ content becomes tangible briefly, almost breathable, then disappears in turbulence.

Two million pamphlets were printed in elemental gold, higher in purity than 24-karat gold, using nanotechnology techniques. Around 250,000 copies were released in the exhibition room so they remain floating around in the air, potentially inhaled by the public. These pamphlets are 150 atoms thick and are biologically inert so pose no health risk. The rest of the pamphlets are shown suspended in water together with images taken by an electron microscope. The text engraved onto the gold leaflets is an excerpt from the Ninth Bridgewater Treatise (1837) by Charles Babbage. The text posits that the atmosphere is a vast repository of everything that has ever been said and that we could potentially "rewind" the movement of every molecule of air to recreate the voices of everyone who has spoken in the past.

“Pulse Drip” is an interactive installation originally developed for Urdaibai Art 2012 in which the public can water the lawn at the Torre de Madariaga using a water hose with a heart rate sensor built-in.

"Pulse Tank" is an Interactive installation where the heart rates of members of the public are detected by sensors and converted into water waves in a ripple tank. A light show is created by the resulting waves and their interaction. To participate, insert your finger into one of the four cylinders on the side of the tank or put your hands flat on the front panel; the computer will detect your pulse and activate a solenoid which will hammer your heart rate onto the tank.
